Each year we try to find a unique Mother’s Day gift that will make our mom’s smile. Here is a guide to some marvelous gifts including hampers, jewellery, DIY gifts or kits and luxury homeware. There is something for the new mum and those who are now grandmothers and great-grandmothers.
Jewelry
Jewelry is a traditional gift for Mother’s Day, but you can make it extra special with a set of earrings and a pendant necklace created from roses picked at the peak of perfection and preserved in 24 karat gold. These unique Mother’s Day presents can be found in a range of colours, with each coloured rose symbolic of a particular feeling. A pink rose for appreciation, a peach rose for gratitude and a yellow rose for happiness and friendship are just some ideas.
If your mother does not wear jewellery, consider a unique piece of home décor. You can stay with a preserved rose theme and each year add a new colour to create a growing bouquet that she can see daily as a reminder how loved she is. It is also an attractive talking point.
Craft kit
Help your mother to find time to do something she loves. If she has not found time to continue painting, knitting, tapestry or another artistic endeavour, gift her a craft kit that she can use to get started in a new project. You might want to add in tokens for a craft class somewhere local or with a person you know they admire in the same line of work. You can even send her a gin making kit if she is less of an artist and more a scientist. These craft and science kits are also perfect retirement gifts for mom as she will be seeking our new and interesting hobbies.
Hamper
Most mothers appreciate being pampered. Our mothers have spent so many years of their lives caring for us and it is time for us to repay the favour.

Create a food hamper with all her favourite treats. If she has specific dietary requirements, search out some fine tasting foods whether she eats a gluten-free, dairy-free or vegan diet. You can also put together a hamper of all foods she is missing from her childhood home, so for someone from Australia, the hamper would have to include Vegemite and TimTams.
Always write a card with your gift
Try to wrap your gift well, with colourful gift wrap, ribbon and bow. Remember to also attach a card in which you can tell your mother why you think she is practically perfect in every way. If you find it challenging to find the words, use the lyrics of her favourite song or a poem that explains better than you how much you love her.
Write a book about her
If you consider yourself a bit of a wordsmith, consider writing a book about your mother. There are books you can buy that provide a fun, easy, and meaningful prompts to help you create a heartfelt gift as unique as your mother. The book with help you share favourite moments as well as other shared experiences to remind your mother precisely what she means to you.
Personalised photo album
Pull together some of the best photos of the two of you together over your lifetime or the past year. Print copies of the photographs for a photo album from which she can decide which ones she would like to frame to have on view always. Alternatively, have your favourite photograph of your mother printed onto a canvas that she can hang on a wall at home or place the photograph in a silver frame in which you have engraved a personal message to her.
First Mother’s Day
Her first Mother's Day should be extra special. Create a photo print as a reminder of this first celebration of many that she will share with her child. This could be a photo that you put on a plush velvet throw that they can both cuddle up on the sofa with.
